Sounds like the starter solenoid might have gone 'phutt'

I think it already is. Btw, you had to give up your "core" to get this for about $300 if I understand you correctly, right? Nope, All one has to do is, get the ABS module out. read the number out on on the top left corner, like it says on the IPDUSA website, and find a part that has your ...

Ok, PROBLEM SOLVED Apparently, the volvos do a self test at ~ 20mph. So after I took the car for a test drive (just to see how things were, after the disappointment), and it cleared itself out! IT HEALS ITSELF! heh, needless to say, I am very excited. Thanks for all the help. I was going to take pic...

Thanks for the tip guys...

Ok, I jus...

I just turned on the car, and all the symptoms mentioned above are gone!
My wife said that she noticed the car jerking (as I mentioned in my first post) as well 2 days back, but only once!
